Did you know that on New Year’s Eve 2020, BLUNTmoms will turn 7 years old? Aside from looking frickin amazing for our age, we are also funny, bright and opinionated (like every older woman should be). We gave you a hefty load of honest, raw, funny and tragic stories (again) this year from our brilliant team,
We wanted to share our end of year round up of the posts you loved (or hated) the most.
Moms of Boys, You Are My People By Anne Sawan A hilarious post about what a mother experiences after raising daughters, and then a son.
The Time I My Husband My Sex Slave by Kristine Laco which takes creative game playing to a whole new level.
Grandma’s Last Thanksgiving By Ali Solomon which you walk into thinking will be a poignant tale of loss over the holidays, but in fact takes you on a completely different storytelling ride (hold on and buckle in)
Dear Pet Moms by ANONYMOUS . A post that AGAIN takes a top 10 spot, and gets a bonus award for the most comments (we are darn close to 600 now) The post that the internet LOVES to HATE and no one actually realizes was written sarcastically by a pet loving gal. Now, there is ONE positive comment out of the 598…. so we think that is exciting.
The Letter Your Teenager Can’t Write You by Gretchen Schmelzer If you parenting a teen (or are trying to) this is the post for you. It will be your big, deep breath in between the arguments and anxiety.
It’s A Homecoming Date, Not A Headline by Alethea of BensWritingRunningMom she shares her experience parenting a son with special needs and how her hopes for him are unique and important.
My Mom’s Original Gangster Parenting Hacks Would Never Fly Today by Colleen Dilthey Thomas where she breaks down just HOW BAD (or was it good?) our parents were!
The Small Penis’d Boyfriend by anonymous, cause DUH! So Apparently, according to google, this is a big (ahem small) problem in relationships. Thank you google, we are thrilled to be the resource for women looking for solutions to these tiny problems.
8 Slang Terms Your Teen Uses- Do You Know What Fleek Means? by Magnolia Ripkin which goes to prove that sometimes we share highly educational content (but its still funny)
Response to Butler Country Sheriff by MaryBeth in response to Mr. Rich Jones, the dick of a Sheriff who won’t allow his officers to carry Narcan. Dick move Rich.
So that is us for the year. What can you expect for 2020? Well, seeing as we are moving into an election, and we have some pretty strong opinions about what a total dumpster fire the current US president Donald Trump is… I’m thinking you’ll continue to see some political stuff from us. We will probably also post about pro-life, pro-LGBTQ+ stuff, and all those things that mean “humans have choices”
Our writers plan to touch on more women’s rights issues going on around the world, and continue to share their stories of trying to parent their teenagers. One thing I am certain about is that we will STILL BE BLUNT.
Merry New Year and Happy Christmas to all!
